* A clerk at the North High Street 7-11 called police early
Thursday morning when a heavy set white male wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt,
jeans, and boots grabbed four packs of cigarettes and ran out of the store.

The clerk said the man was standing outside of the door,
which the clerk unlocked so that he could come in and make a purchase. The man
entered and exchanged words with the clerk.

He then reached over the counter, taking four packs of
Marlboros, and ran out across the parking lot to Foundry Street, where he
headed west.

Patrol units searched the area but were unable to find the
man.

* A clerk at the West Main Street Wawa called police
Thursday morning and said that a woman was shoplifting.

When an officer arrived, employees pointed toward a woman at
the counter who was later identified as Jessica L. Maldonado, 31, of Overbrook
Avenue. Employees told the officer they had seen her placing items in her bag. When
the officer told her this, she closed her large handbag and said she had paid
for everything, which comprised a coffee and newspaper.

A search of the bag revealed some cottage cheese and a breakfast
sandwich, valued at $2.46, and she was arrested.

After arriving at the station the officer found an orange
juice, strawberry milk, Greek blueberry yogurt and gummy bears with a total
value of $5.32 on the floor of the rear seat. He called Wawa and an employee
advised him to discard the items.

Maldonado then provided the name of Lyrica Cruz, but the
officer was able to determine her name from a check cashing stub.

She was then taken to the South Jersey Healthcare-Regional
Medical Center for reasons that were blacked out in the police report.

Maldonado was cleared at the emergency room to be
incarcerated in the Cumberland County Jail. While dressing, the officer said
she was hiding items in her boots and clothes, though she said it was only her
iPod.

The officer took her to the jail, and when they arrived he
found a syringe on the seat where she had been sitting. She was then searched
by a female officer and incarcerated.

Maldonado was charged with shoplifting, obstruction of
justice for providing the false name, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
